An auto maker is using a lie de-. . tector to determine the emotional response to advertising. Another good use for lie detectors would be to enable buyers to tell which advertisers are telling the truth. : j Win go vers "ALL THE NEWS THAT'S FIT I TO PRINT FROM THE DELTA AIRPORT" DICK MORRISON FLEDGLING FLIGHT . . .

The air was rather turbulent Sunday morning, with a few clouds building up, but by evening it was calm and sweet, wih a few local flyers circling around. Don Bird logged 30 minutes of "turns glides, take - offs and landings." Bob Nichols and Larry Mijares tried tri-ed some precision landings. Leon and Golden Theobald took off in the T-Craft, and yours truly got a little dual landing instruction wih Bill Wagoner, who had just returned return-ed 'from a day in Salt Lake. I D CARDS . . . The deadline for obtaining new identification cards for pilots, mechanics mec-hanics and other airmen is Sept. 1., but CAA reguests fhat applications be made earlier if possible. Safety agents are now issuing cards. Applicants must show satisfactory satisfact-ory identification and proof of cit- ) izenship; must furnish two photos one inch square, and show airmen certificate.

He asked radio man Bob Nichols if he'd had any report on the plane , which Bob had not. Shortly thereafter the plane was sighted approaching the field, and Ralph felt relieved, for a moment. It was he right plane, sure enough, en-ough, but as it taxied in it became be-came obvious that Bubs wasn't in it. That did look bad. A moment can seem like an hour ,and this one did, for Ralph, as he wondered wonder-ed how on earth Mr. Snell could be returning three hours late, without his passenger. It looked like foul play, or a tragic accident; except that Ray was smiling happily, hap-pily, and didnt' look at all like a man who had just pushed a boy out of a flying plane. What had happened was soon made clear. On he return flight, Snell and Bubs had decided to land on Boots Done's airstrip, which was a good idea except that the airstrip had just been irrigated The Cessna bogged down almost to its ailerons in mud. Bubs waded ashore, borrowed a horse from Boots, and pulled i to dry land. This, of course took time. After cleaning the plane up a little, Ray taxied to a dry alfalfa field, took off, and hopped over to the airport. THEW CAN TRY, ANYWAY ... One of the funniest flubs I've seen in a long time appeared in the syndicated column of the noted not-ed financial writer, M. S. Rukey-ser, Rukey-ser, of INS, the other day. It was run by the Deseret News among dozens of other papers. Commenting Comment-ing on the price of beef, Rukersey wrote: "If the price fixing is to adversely adver-sely affect supply, it must be because be-cause of the thinking of the human hum-an element o" the livestock industry. in-dustry. It is unlikely that the steers themselves are sensitive to price, or that rollbacks will dampen damp-en their enthusiasm for perpetuating perpetuat-ing and reproducing their kind." ... Bubs decided to sjy at Done's. Ralph Sr. still thinks Snell should have put his mind at ease by calling cal-ling Delta with', the plane's radio. Still, you can hardly blame Snell. No self respecting pilot would like to broadcast the fac that he is sitting in a mudhole waiting for a horse to pull him out, and to file a flight plan stating that he would fake off from the nearest dry hay field has soon as the horse was unhitched would be decidedly irregular, to say the least.
